Wheels / Tires ...Ucas??

[ofcbarbrady]

Okay......I got my 18x9 TRD/BBS wheels today. Will be taking them to the powdercoating place this weekend. I also will be ordering the Toytec Ultimate lift next week probably. Now I have a few questions for you guys.
Which of these tires will be the best fit? No offroading, just for looks....

285/65/18 trail grapplers..........32.8 x 11.9

LT285/65/18 terra grapplers.....32.5 x 11.2

305/60/18 terra grapplers........32.4 x 12.2

And also.......should I get a set of the Light Racing UCA's that everyone has had good luck with? Ideally I would like to do the trail grapplers, but don't know if almost 12" is too wide. Any thoughts or other suggestions??

If you are not off-roading, get the Terra Grapplers 285/65/18. Great tires for on and off and low road noise. I just got mine in 17inch and they are great!! Aggressive look, good price, and great handling tire. I have not had and experience with the Light Racing UCA's, but I have heard great things about them and it will allow you to get your runner alighted to stock specs.

I`d definatly recommend the LR UCA`s, more tire clearance and the ability to dial in a perfect alignment!!

I really like my Nitto TG`s although mine are 265/70 17`s!

Definitely get the UCA's. These wheels have a +10 offset so it will be tight on the inside.

I'd also suggest a mild body lift. Any of those tire sizes are going to run wide when mounted on a 9" wide wheel. You will have rubbing on the fender edge even with a lift.

As for the tire, go for the most agressive one you can live with. I've read good reviews on the Trail Grappler. Plus the board does not have a member with these tires and I'm thirsty for some pics n a 4Runner.

I'd prefer not to do a body lift at all. I know I'll probably have to do some trimming, and really like the Terra Grapplers, but man do the Trail Grapplers look badass. And theyre only about $15 more.

Also the stock tires they come with (I didnt get the tires) are Michelin 285/60/18.......so I thought going a bit bigger wouldn't be too bad on rubbing, especially if I was getting the Toytec Ultimate and Uca's.......
